AVIATION / AEROSPACE EDUCATION PROGRAM
BY PAMELA A. GREYER
DIRECTOR OF AVIATION / AEROSPACE TRAINING & CONSULTANT
It is our intent to establish a feeder and connective Program that allows k9 - k12 students to be properly trained to attend a higher learning institution like Tuskegee University and participate in the Republic Airline pilot program. We feel that as part of the Tuskegee Reimagining Development in tandem with the Robins Tuskegee National Park site, this will peak and establish a platform for our younger African American high school students to seek opportunities in aviation and aerospace.

HURD-WILLA BROWN
AERONAUTICS EDUCATION LABORATORY
Background
In 1998, NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) awarded Chicago Public Schools funding to establish a NASA SEMAA (Science, Engineering, Mathematics, and Aerospace Academy) site at Christian Fenger Academy Founded in 1993 at Cuyahoga Community College and the NASA Lewis Research Center, the goals of SEMAA were to Increase the participation of underrepresented/underserved groups in science, mathematics and engineering and technology careers, increase "success" rates of all students interested in science and mathematics, develop partnerships to recognize and support students interested in these fields, and to support continued success of highly successful students. The NASA SEMAA Chicago Program continued through June of 2010 and served over 2,500 K-12 Chicago Public School students.
The SEMAA K-12 curriculum was a nationally recognized academic STEM program meeting National Science Standards. NASA mission directives and educational materials were included in each grade level SEMAA course. The Aeronautics Education Laboratory was a hands-on component of the SEMAA program and gave students the opportunity to engage in real-world aviation and aerospace education experiences. The AEL was equipped with a professional grade wind tunnel for aerodynamic experiments, a parabolic flight simulator, antenna radio for one way communication with Chicago’s O’Hare and Midway airport’s air traffic control, a roof-top weather station, real-time tracking of geostationary satellites in Earth orbit, aircraft design computer station,
remote sensing station, and computer access to official NASA websites, missions and educational materials.
Continuing the Legacy of Pioneering African American Aviators
The NASA SEMAA Chicago Program’s Aeronautics Education Laboratory was named after two pioneering African American aviators, Harold Hurd and Willa Brown. Hurd was born and raised in Chicago, attended Wendell Phillips High School, and became one of the first African American aviators in the Midwest. He formed the first flying club in 1930 and later became involved in establishing Robbins Airport, the first airport in the country founded by African Americans. Willa Brown moved to Chicago and became the first African American woman to earn a pilot's license in the United States and the first African American Officer in the Civil Air Patrol. Along with Cornelius Coffey, they co-founded the Coffey School of Aeronautics, the first private flight training academy owned and operated by African Americans in the United States. Brown trained hundreds of pilots, many of whom went on to become Tuskegee Airmen.
The tradition of aviation and aerospace educational programming has continued through the efforts of Solar System Ambassador and AIAA (American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics) Illinois Section K-12 Chair Pamela Greyer since the closing of the SEMAA program in Chicago. As NASA SEMAA Chicago Director, Mrs. Greyer formed partnerships with the Chicago DODO Chapter of the Tuskegee Airmen and created a 9-12 grade aviation training program through the Harold Hurd-Willa Brown AEL where students could earn their private pilot’s license by the end of their senior year.
With an absence of STEM programs focusing on aviation and aerospace disciplines in the Chicago area, the continued efforts to bring full programming back under the name of the Harold Hurd-Willa Brown Aeronautics Education Laboratory has been an ongoing mission. With the support of AIAA, other aviation/aerospace companies, and higher education stakeholders in the Chicago area, we are in discussions with an aeronautics training institution that has offered space for an aeronautics education lab Keeping the name of the former SEMAA Aeronautics Education Laboratory, Harold Hurd-Willa Brown AEL to honor African American aviation pioneers will allow continued connection and engagement for students, teachers, families, and the community with hands-on aeronautics activities and experiential NASA STEM experiences The Family Cafe' will return as well to engage parents and the community in STEM learning to support their children. Matriculation agreements are in progress with the University of Illinois, UIC, IIT and Wilbur Wright College as well as partnerships with aviation/aerospace companies that can provide internships and pathways to careers during high school, college and jobs upon college graduation
Aeronautics Education Laboratory Program Framework
The AEL will provide hands-on aviation/aeronautics educational experiences through NASA education materials and approved FAA training curriculum and testing. The high school level program includes the following:

● Be familiar with aviation terminology and aviation basic principles
● Have an Introduction to and develop an understanding of career paths in aviation/aerospace
Aerospace Engineering Fundamentals (Grade 10)
Aerospace Engineering Foundations. At the end of 10th grade students will:
● Have gained experience in designing and testing aerospace prototypes
● Be able to apply physics and engineering concepts to aerospace challenges
Advanced Aviation (Grade 11)
Advanced Aviation Studies. At the end of 11th grade students will:
● Be proficient in flight planning and navigation
● Understand the complexities of aviation operations
Capstone Project (Grade 12)
Aviation Capstone Project. At the end of 12th grade students will:
● Have acquired mastery of a specific area within aviation/aerospace
● Be preparation for post-secondary education or entry-level careers in the field
Additional Components:
